afterwards anyone game job nice remember seniors tone
The seniors set the tone early. They did a nice job and I told them afterwards they'll remember this one because they impacted the game as much as anyone on our team. They'll remember this game for a long, long time.
eight game help percent shooting taking team three
Brandon's got to be a playmaker for us. When you're shooting 60 percent from three, you need to be taking more than three a game. He should be taking eight a game and shooting 40 percent. That would help the team a lot more.
against game opponent quality win
To win a game like that against a quality opponent like that when you don't play well should give us a lot of confidence.
deal games less score seven
There's not many things less important than the score at halftime. It's kind of like that deal with the race. Seven games in, who really knows?
change complete game guard length prepared unique
I think Rondo is the best, most complete guard in the country. He has a unique way about him. He can change the game in one or two possessions because of his length defensively and his hands. That's something that we have to be prepared for.
decisions foul game trap unsure
We were unsure even during the game do you trap him or not. Fortunately for us, we did not have to make those decisions because he had foul problems.
call foul game mean officials opening physical stuff
I thought it was a physical game before the game started. I mean before the opening tip. I don't know that the intentional foul made it more physical. I think it made officials call more stuff after that.
easier easy game others
Julian makes the game easier for others by getting them easy baskets. But he can also make the game more complicated than what it is.
ball evolving four game guard harder man screens stretching threat
With the game evolving into so many ball screens and stretching defenses, you're so much harder to guard when you have a four man (power forward) that can be a threat from the perimeter as well as inside.
anybody attention ball detail game hard looked offense pay possession ran slow stuff understanding
He's a ball mover. It's not that our offense has been so slow ... we ran the same stuff when he was in the game and looked pretty good. Moving, cutting, being sharp, understanding how hard you've got to play, tighten every possession up, pay attention to detail ... he does that as well as anybody we have, if not better.
game good job
We got after them pretty good. We did a good job of controlling the game from the get-go. At 16-2, I thought we were in pretty good shape.
basketball difficult easily game good great jim job
What are they, 6-9 in the conference? They could easily be 9-6 or 10-5. They are a good basketball team. Jim (Wooldridge) has done a great job with them and it will be a very difficult game for us.
bad certainly december duke dwell game good played roll team texas
We've been on a pretty good roll and certainly played a bad game tonight. Texas didn't become a bad team after Duke (a 31-point setback December 10) and we didn't become a bad team after these 40 minutes. We certainly aren't going to dwell on that.
against game negatives playing selection
That's one of the negatives of playing the game that butts up against the selection show.
